redditgifts is Hiring a Front End Developer!

Here at redditgifts we are continuing to grow and we are looking to hire a front end developer. We currently don’t have a front end developer which means we need you to be extra amazing. We want you to really own ALL things front end on redditgifts.

redditgifts needs to be better. We need to re-design pretty much the entire site and we need to do it quickly. We’ve got our growing gift exchange platform and our growing online marketplace. Not to mention, we don’t even have a mobile site! We need ALL THE THINGS!

In order to do this job, you should:

Be a PRO at HTML, CSS and JavaScript (jquery). Seriously, you need to know this stuff, and enjoy it all.

Have experience with mobile web. We have ideas, but it’s not our forté, we need you to own it.

Understand object oriented programming and best programming practices. You do know javascript right?

Be able to implement front end processes and best practices. You will be working with some back end developers who are better suited not spending much time in the front end. You need to tell them how to do stuff right.

Be a leader. We don't like to hold hands, we like people to tell us what should be happening.

Be deadline oriented. We don't miss deadlines at redditgifts, ever. Everything we do has very strict deadlines and we plan accordingly. Cool?
